Shut down or Restart Appliance Use this procedure to immediately halt the onQ Appliance. The hypervisor and all processes managed by the hypervisor are halted. Shutting down the onQ Appliance interrupts all protection operations and stops all recovery nodes. To shut down the onQ Appliance: 1. Log on to the onQ Appliance’s onQ Portal. 2. Select the drop-down menu. 3. Choose Shut down onQ Appliance. To restart the onQ Appliance: 1. Ensure that the power is off, then turn it on (power-cycle). 2. Restart protection. 3. Restart any recovery nodes that were in use before the reboot occurred, if they don’t start automatically. Virtual machines hosted on a hypervisor (specifically XenServer) start automatically when the onQ Appliance reboots. However, sometimes a virtual machines do not start up automatically upon reboot of the onQ Appliance.
